Please feel free to suggest other options in the comments for future polls!
*NOTE: I have seen End of Watch, Inside Man, & Smokin' Aces, so this would only be Sam's first time reaction.

Awesome!! Looking forward to the content, as usual. Really wasn't trying to rush you or anything. I've just gotten so used to seeing your weekly schedule notifications in my email that it threw me for a bit of a loop when they didn't appear for a bit.

2024-02-21 07:19:38 +0000 UTCWe hear you! We filmed a bunch this weekend and Daniel’s trying to get things edited so we were hoping to be a solid week ahead on Patreon so we could post the schedule in sync with YT, but a week early for you guys! Hoping that happens this week but upcoming is Inside Man, Patton (full length posted), Carrie and JFK! MOTA we can’t post ahead so just movies for now! -Sam

2024-02-21 07:00:29 +0000 UTCAbsolutely. The weekly Patreon schedule is just something that I would like to see come back at some point. Still loving the channel.

2024-02-21 06:55:56 +0000 UTCI hear ya but I give them a pass, Daniel and Sam have been amazing ever since they started this channel, they are parents now and Daniel I believe still has a day job, yes the weekly coming soon post would nice but it's not the worst thing in the world if they don't post those for a few weeks, we'll be ok

2024-02-21 06:11:30 +0000 UTCGreat to see that one of the films I voted for, Carlito's Way, has won the poll. Keeping my fingers crossed that the other film I voted for, The French Connection, gets a reaction soon as well since it was only five votes behind. Also, I hope that the weekly schedules get brought back for Patreon soon. I know TBR is still doing them on YouTube but since they're not in sync at the moment I think it would help if there was a weekly schedule for both going forward, so we know what to expect every week going forward.

2024-02-21 01:35:36 +0000 UTCOne Day Ronin will win, and on that day, you will enjoy a great late 90s thriller.

2024-02-16 21:43:45 +0000 UTCWind River is very overlooked I think. Lot of good choices here.

2024-02-03 12:08:03 +0000 UTCi second them all, but i second "all the president's men" first.
YoureMrLebowski
2024-02-03 12:05:58 +0000 UTCMiller's Crossing (1990) please and thank you
YoureMrLebowski
2024-02-03 12:05:03 +0000 UTCAttica! Attica! Attica! Brilliant direction by Sidney Lumet, (12 Angry Men) and fabulous performances by Pacino, John Cazele and Charles Durning!
Catherine LW
2024-02-01 22:15:33 +0000 UTCFor Future Crime Poll i recommend "Marathon Man" from 1976 with Dustin Hoffman and "All The Presidents Men" from 1976 with Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford and "No Way Out" from 1987 with Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman
Florian Meier
2024-01-31 09:06:20 +0000 UTCFuture crime movies to consider that a lot of viewers here may not have seen: King of New York Q and A Internal Affairs (1988 Richard Gere) Miller's Crossing Thomas Crown Affair The Drop To Live and Die in LA
Smooticus
2024-01-31 05:21:19 +0000 UTCCome on, Dog Day Afternoon! Most underrated film here. Terrifying and hilarious at the same time!
Catherine LW
2024-01-30 14:16:57 +0000 UTCToo bad “Lucky Number Slevin” wasn’t included in this poll!!! Josh Hartnet, Bruce Willis, Morgan freeman, Ben Kingsley and Lucy Liu
JayDee AhBooWan
2024-01-29 21:31:06 +0000 UTCVoted Ronin, but I always felt like the movie wasn't named well.
Brian
2024-01-29 20:42:27 +0000 UTCAn excellent movie
Smooticus
2024-01-29 13:13:29 +0000 UTCI'd love to see Crash rise to the top of some sort of poll, but it doesn't look like it'll be this one, haha. It's an amazing film which I hope finds it's place in a reaction someday.

2024-01-29 10:20:24 +0000 UTCSuggestions for future polls. All these films involve a crime of some kind or another: (a) The original (1968) "The Thomas Crown Affair" w Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway, directed by Norman Jewison, who just passed away last week (b) "Blow Out" w John Travolta (c) "The Talented Mr. Ripley" w Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, Jude Law and Philip Seymore Hoffman (d) "Side Effects", directed by Steven Soderbergh

2024-01-29 09:46:14 +0000 UTCSince you guys are looking for more Denzel Washington movies to watch, I'm going to recommend the movie Ricochet from 1991. It's like Tango and Cash in that the movie starts in a way that you think is a pretty standard formula, then it turns into a wild ride lol
Torben Dix
2024-01-29 08:42:43 +0000 UTCCarlito's Way is a gorgeously acted film with those DePalma touches who seems relaxed and in his wheelhouse with this one. another crime film to consider (and personal fave :) is Gangster No 1 with Paul Bettany. i love that movie so much, but its hard to find on streaming services. if it ever does stream ill make it as part of my Schmitthead's entry.

2024-01-29 07:08:37 +0000 UTCsuggestion for a future poll : Crown Vic

2024-01-29 06:28:20 +0000 UTCJust searched previous polls - Dog Day Afternoon has lost at least 5 previous polls, going back 2 years, which I'm guessing is hard for any other film to match here. Since it seems destined to lose this poll as well, maybe you can just select it for one of the non poll picks you use? It's on the AFI top 100 and was nominated for many Oscars, despite it losing all these polls it's not some obscure cult film I promise:) Popcorn in Bed even reacted to it!
Birdie Num Num
2024-01-29 06:19:27 +0000 UTCCarlito's Way won't need my vote, but I expect it to come out ahead of Dog Day Afternoon as it always does. I guess it depends on whether you like "badass" Al Pacino or "nervous wreck" Al Pacino. I prefer the latter.
Paul Cox
2024-01-29 05:41:00 +0000 UTCI couldn't pass up on Carlitos way, but blood in blood out is definitely worth a reaction
dieselbeast
2024-01-29 05:34:50 +0000 UTCWow! That's some collection. A lot of "obscure" (for lack of a better word" films. Sexy Beast gets my vote, but Taking of Pelham 1,2,3 is another favorite. I think you should just put all of these in a playlist and do one a day!
David Martin
2024-01-29 05:30:37 +0000 UTCArgh. I love Al Pacino, and I love Gene Hackman. I guess I will go with Dog Day. I like it slightly better than French.
Athos Count de la Fère
2024-01-29 05:30:28 +0000 UTCEven if it doesn't win, I'm hoping you will watch Wind River sometime soon. I think you would really appreciate it! Thank you ~

2024-01-29 05:27:06 +0000 UTCBlood in Blood out all the way
Javier B
2024-01-29 05:26:16 +0000 UTCBlood In, Blood Out will probably never win a poll but it is a crazy story that most closely recreates the true story of how the Mexican Mafia started in California prisons, and how at one point a white guy, the son of Croatian immigrants who grew up in a Mexican neighborhood in LA eventually ran it, although they changed a few, but key, facts (for one, he's portrayed as being half Mexican). American ME is a better made version of the story with a better budget and kind of a better cast, but it's less accurate, to the extent that several people were actually murdered for participating, and over some of the misrepresentations that were taken as insults. Danny Trejo, who was in Blood In, Blood Out has said in interviews that he personally had to intervene because the star and director of American ME, Edward James Olmos, was about to be killed for making the movie over a scene that was considered a direct insult to the founder of the Mexican Mafia.
